License in the Senate.

The state Senate fears to take too
strong gulp of high license, and has voted
to retain the present distinction between
the beer and whisky license, making the
charge for beer s200 in cities of the first
three classes; in other cities $3.50; in
boroughs 300 and in townships so. The
whisky license is raised to 400 in the cities
where the beer-seller pays $50. Evidently
the Senate believes that beer is a better
beverage than whisky about which there
may be two opinions in these days when
pure beer is hard to get.
There is one amendment to this liquor
legislation which is very much needed; and
that is the imposition OF penalty upon
adulterated beverages. There would be
vastly less evil flowing from liquor drink
ing if the liquors drunk were sound. Good
beer is whole some and 50 is good whisky
taken when needed and in moderation
The state when it licenses their sale ought
| to see to it that adulterated articles are moi
sold. II can forbid or control the sale
and when it permits it, should see to i
that it is honestly conducted.

Pine Tree and Lone Star States.

Governor Ross, of Texas, has written a
letter opposing prohibition on the ground
that it is against the genius of free institu-
tions, impolitic and unwise. lie challenges
comparison between Texas and prohibition
Maine and proceeds to say some very un'
pleasant things about the Pine Tree state.
Maine, he says, has more paupers than
Texas, although she endeavors to relieve
herself Of the burden by driving out her
poor as wanderers and outcasts. Her labor
troubles show the discomfort Of the work
ing men, her towns are not growing and
crime is on the increase: whereas Texas is
growing rapidly in wealth and population,
spends more money for educational pur.
poses, and in short, is in most blisstul
condition generally.
This will I've news to many people who
have imagined that in certain parts of tht
Lone Star state people were suffering SC
desperately from drought that government
aid was necessary. Texas suffers from
want of water and Maine, according Il
Ross, from too much.

Seeking the Sea,

The Pennsylvania Steel company is pre-
pairing to smelt its Cuban ore at the sea.
side. Obviously its profit in this comes
from the saving it makes over loading the
ore on cars and carrying it to Harrisburg.
The company seems to have determined
that it is cheaper TO carry the fuel to the
seaside than to bring the ore to the fuel in
the interior, or to its present site, which has
been supposed to have great advantages as
place for great manufacturing industry.
There are many considerations entering
into the question of the relative cheapness
OF manufacturing sites, and there is al
ways room for great difference of opinion
In the matter.
The idea of the steel company seems to
bs good one, since they save over a dol
lar in railroad charges, and further cost in
handling them over. If they had for
eign market for these goods their project
would be still better. Perhaps they look
forward to this in the future day of free
Trade. Meantime they can bring the rail.
roads to reason in their freight charges by
having two strings to their manufacturing
bow, one being by the free sea waves.
1t is to be noted that Congress will not
be inspired to see any great need of taking
the present duty off foreign ores, by the
exhibitions OF the Pennsylvania steel com.
pany' g readiness TO establish more furnaces
tosmelt it at the present duty. In truth ther.
does not seem to be any need Just now for
taking off the duty on ore, which appears
to be strictly for revenue, of which it pro.

for steel ores, which are the only ones i'm.
ported, and which can be laid down on the

The Kentucky Convention.

The Kentucky convention affords an
agreeable picture Of the harmony now prev.
alent In the Democratic ranks. Kentucky
u typical Democratic state. 1t is Demo
cratic all over, and the party ticket there
Is elected when nominated. There is there
fore no restraining influence of the fear of
defeat to control the party there to the
modification of IT'S beliefs and its feelings
But 1t is fortunate in having able and SEN
sible leaders, and it is fortunate for the
party at large that the convention they
control meets at this early period to
give expression to Democratic sentiment.
The declaration of support to the national
administration and of confidence in il
il made very strong and hearty; and it is
clear that there is to be no detection in the
Democratic column in the country because
OF the determination of the administration
70 support the civil service law. Kentucky
has been one Of the most pronounced
localities in its affection for the old
doctrine that to the victors belong the
sp0ils and the attitude which the party in
convention now takes towards Demo
cratic national administration which sus
tains and enforces a law that greatly
modifles this doctrine, is significant of the
cohesion of the party in the nation. Wise
leaders in Kentucky proclaim party unity
'and harmony in following the course
which the president has taken with the
evident approval of the nation. Mr.. Wat.
terson, one of his strongest critics, is
among these Kentucky leaders, and has
been reduced to submission.
Mr.. Carlisle, one of the party's wisest
counsellors, is of them, and doubtless his
influence has been potential in securing the
unaplamty which is so evidently the party
policy. He proclaims the manifest doc
trine that party minority must yield to g
party majority, or abandon the party coun
ellis a doctrine which he will find effective
when occasion arises TO settle the part,
uron its revenue policy.
The convention makes strong declara
ton in favor Of a reduction in the wal
tariff, and such modification of it as will
lessen the taxes on the necessarie.
Of life Kentucky states the Democratic
position on the issue and the minority of the
party, who do not subscribe to it, are likely
to be called upon at an early day, in Mr.
Carlisle's language "to submit or go Their
way" Kentucky may have been the reader
to yield its views on the civil service ques-
tion, because Of its knowledge that it was
on top in the tariff issue. The convention
swan out of the civil service difficulty
rather swkwardly by declaring itself in
favor of " honest civil service reform :"
which it declared to mean the faithful per
formance of public duty 1t is evident that
KfGeucft4 slow convert to the new
doctrine, and that it takes it only to keep
along in company with the administration.
